Referencing

Academic referencing (using quotes from or referring to text books, websites or the TEFL Academy
online course) is a requirement for this qualification.

 You must include at least two references for Assignment A. (Pictures and The TEFL Academy site
are adequate).
 All materials you use or refer to should be properly referenced in a bibliography.
 The purpose of referencing is
a) to avoid plagiarism.
b) to give your reader enough information to easily find the original source if they want to.

In-Text Citation:
 If you refer to a text in your work, you should refer to it in brackets in a way that allows the reader
to easily find the full reference in the bibliography, e.g., (Scrivener, 2014).
 Providing in-text citations is not a requirement, but should be used if necessary.

Bibliography:
 In your bibliography, we suggest using the following formats:
Books: Author (date) title, city, publisher, page no.
Example: Jim Scrivener (2014) Teaching English Grammar, Oxford, Macmillan Education, pp 67-8

Websites: Author/Organisation. Date/n.d. Title. Website name, Available at: website address
[Accessed: (date you looked at it)]
Example: Alex Case (March 2008) 15 fun games for the Present Continuous, TEFL.net, Available at:
https://www.tefl.net/elt/ideas/grammar/fun-games-for-present-continuous/ [Accessed
19/08/2017]

 Websites often do not provide all this information. Give as much information as is available.

Please note the following:

 'n.d.' stands for 'no date,' use this if no date is given


 If the name of the author is not given, just leave it out.
 For PICTURES, you only need to provide a description of the picture and a hyper-link to the
image (as in the example below), or copy and paste the URL. All links to images will count as
only one reference.
